I'm building Johnnie Johnson's Mk IX Spitfire. I have noticed that most spitfire seats are colored brown but in the kit (PCM) instructions it calls for interior green and also several model photos show the seat painted green. Which is it, brown or interior green? Thanks for any and all help.

Does anyone know the correct FS code (correct color code) for JG 5 "Blue"? I'm building 1/32 FW-190A8 "Blue" 8, using Eagle Cals decals sheet (EC #78). Thanks for any and all help.

I see the new 1/32 Bf-110C has a clipped nose and tail, which means other variants are on the way. I HOPE one of these variants will be a G4 nightfighter. I had started converting Revell's 1/32 110 to a G4 with the help of J. Rutman's conversion kit, but now I've stopped hoping that a Nactjager will be in the works. Has anyone heard any rumors about a G4 variant? Hoping in Ky.

I see that DML is coming out with a new 1/32 Bf-110C! Has anyone heard about them also coming out with a 110G4 Nightfighter version of this model? I've just started work on Revell's 110G4 with J. Rutman's upgrade kit. Rutman makes a good upgrade kit but it is a lot of work, I would rather wait on a complete new kit if it is coming from DML. Any rumors?

I'm working on Revells 1/32 Bf-110G-4 and would like to build it with FuG 218 Radar (See Squadron: Walk Around Messerschmitt Bf 110G; p.6. for picture). Question: Are the actual "H" pattern radar antennas the same as on the FuG 220(SN-2d) or FuG 212 and SN-2 radars? By the same I mean(the poles) the same size and thickness? The FuG 218 Arrays look smaller to me but I can't tell. Any help would be great, Thanks Rob Holmes

Are Spitfire seats Brown or British Interior Green? I have seen both; which is it? I'm working on a Mk I and a Mk Vb. Any help on the true color of these Mk's seat would be of great help. Thanks, Rob Holmes

What color should the fuel cap be painted on the cowling of a RAAF Spitfire Mk V(1/32 Hasegawa). What does the cap look like? Should I scratchbuild one? Hasegawa just gives you an empty hole! Thanks for any help.
